cleaning mildew
I have a large shower stall that has tumbled marble on the floor and saltillo tiles on the walls. I constantly get pink mildew on both surfaces including the grout. I use cleaning products made for natural surfaces and re-seal the floor often, but I'm constantly scrubbing off the sealer to remove the mildew. Is there a product that will remove the mildew without scrubbing?
Dear Paula:
MB-9 is a product that will remove mildew stains without scrubbing, but I believe that if your mildew reappears so soon and so often, you may have some major issue, which - I wouldn't be surpirsed at all - it could be a direct consequence of all this sealing that you're doing so often. Despite widespread and popular misconception, marble is quite a dense stone to begin with; second, it is never a good idea to seal stone in a wet environment. This is science, not my opinion.
